Without doing a lot of work looking up all the things you mention, a few thoughts:
Jump in, go ahead and write a few of these articles and see how other editors react. Some, may, for example, improve your articles, others may list them for deletion for various reasons.
Don't get all excited if everything does not go perfectly. If you are refered to a Wikipedia policy, go there and try to puzzle it out.
Have fun.
An alternative would be to carefully study all the Wikipedia policies before making any edits, but even our policy wonks couldn't stand that.

Hi! I just signed up for my Wikipedia account and have done my first two edits. (I added a note about "The Inner Light" winning the 1993 Hugo and added character descriptions to the article for "You're Under Arrest!".)
I don't know how to start a new article, but there are several I want to do. I need to do a little research on them, but what I would like to do is:
Notable Filk Artists:
Heather Alexander Cecilia Eng Dr. James Robinson (fromerly Dr. Jane Robinson)
Card Captor Sakura character proflies:
Sakura Kinomoto Li Syaoran Tomoyo Daidouji Yukito Tsukishiro/Yue Eriol Hiiragizawa Touya Kinomoto Kaho Mizuki Keroberos (Kero-chan) Ruby Moon and Spinel Sun
Role Playing Game Titles (if they aren't already there)
Champions Big Eyes, Small Mouth
Filk Albums
Cold Iron (Leslie Fish) The Undertaker's Horse (Leslie Fish) Chickasaw Mountain (Leslie Fish) Firestorm; Songs of the Third World War (leslie Fish) Fossil Fever (Dr. James Robinson)
Fandom Terminology
E+T Lemon Relationshippers
Any suggestions on how to go about doing this once the research is done.
